In this newsletter, we announced the availability of new data from the 2016 National Survey of Children's Health on the DRC's interactive data query, along with supporting documents. We also shared the CAHMI's recent info briefs and fact sheet on ACEs and thriving, using data from the 2016 NSCH, as well as updates on the MCH-MRN.

This Title V-specific newsletter shares the release of Title V National Performance and Outcome Measure data on the DRC data query! Also included are blurbs on the new local-level data feature and a special journal issue on ACEs and child well-being.

This newsletter focused on the upcoming release of data from the 2016 National Survey of Children's Health and shared supporting resources created by the CAHMI. We also invited readers to "be our voice" in sharing 2016 NSCH information and discussed our new partnership with Help Me Grow around implementing the Well Visit Planner.

The Association of Maternal & Child health Programs held its 2017 annual conference from March 3rd through 7th. The AMHCP awarded our program director Dr. Christy Bethell with the John C MacQueen Lecture Award, which honors major contributors and innovators in the field of Maternal and Child Health (MCH). Edward Schor, senior vice president for programs and partnerships at the Lucile Packard Foundation for Children’s Health, nominated Dr. Bethell stating: “Her contributions are used daily by MCH professionals, child health clinicians, researchers and policymakers... [she is] one of the most influential people in child health measurement in the U.S.” Dr. Bethell was invited to deliver the Macqueen Lecture on March 5th. Her lecture: “Leveraging the Science of Engagement to Catalyze an Epidemic of Health and Thriving in MCH” aimed to build upon the conference theme of Engagement with Intention.

The wait is over! The 2016 NSCH dataset is ready for request through our one-time registration feature. This newsletter explores the new way to request datasets and provides more resources regarding the 2016 NSCH. In addition, learn about our upcoming conferences and meet our new team members!
